City's New Badge - Do You Like It?

[ell]

I preferred the eagle, It annoys me the new one doesn't say football club or FC on it

 

[ONTHERUNWITHTHAKSIN]

I like it

It's more of a city badge than the previous one and ticks most boxes.
Round
Crest/Shield
Rivers
Rose
1894

Only issue no FC or Football club but 99% right

Still not overly happy that the Red Rose of Lancaster is on there but overall the badge is the best we've ever had and is miles better than the eagle badge which is the worst we've ever had.

Good point imo. like the Rags badge in that respect .

A brand not a football club .

I LOVE our new badge.
Even more when I see that monstrosity we had before it. I had forgotten how awful the eagle was

I just don't get why the badge changes all the f*** time

Get rid of the rose, put FC on it, and I'd be 99% happy. The eagle never seemed appropriate. Looked like the swastika had dropped off.

They'll never please everyone but I remember on the survey about what we preferred as a badge and I reiterated I like the Rose.

I still do. Having a stroll on a daily basis throughout Manchester city centre confirms to me the place that this rose has on the badge.

The birdie emblem was a fabrication with no historical references, whereas the ship/rivers/rose reflect heritage.

It was done to death on a previous thread but Manchester was in Lancs for most of City's past, hence the rose. If you scrap that, why not the ship and rivers too?
